Splashing occurs when a liquid drop hits a dry solid surface at high velocity. This paper reports experimental studies of how the splash depends on the roughness and the texture of the surfaces as well as the viscosity of the liquid. For…
A velocity boundary condition for the Lattice Boltzmann simulation technique has been proposed recently by Hecht and Harting[arxiv:0811.4593]. This boundary condition is independent of the relaxation process during collision and contains no…

The understanding of the spreading of liquids on solid surfaces is an important challenge for contemporary physics. Today, the motion of the contact line formed at the intersection of two immiscible fluids and a solid is still subject to…

We investigate a model for the dynamics of a solid object, which moves over a randomly vibrating solid surface and is subject to a constant external force. The dry friction between the two solids is modeled phenomenologically as being…
The "free" water surface is generally prone to contamination with surface impurities be they surfactants, particles or other surface active agents. The presence of such impurities can modify flow boundary near such interfaces in a drastic…
